    Is the Crystalsky worth it?

    Bought the Ultra bright and love it. Definitely worth it as long as you can afford it and you get one that works. I've had no problem with mine and it's great in daylight.

    charging p4p from inverter

    You need to make sure the inverter you are using is a "true sine wave" inverter. It's a technical issue about the way the power is shaped, not something most don't want to hear the details of. Most cheap inverters are going to be square wave or modified sine wave but a lot of electronic...

    Anyone take a P4P camera apart?

    Hijacking my own thread back I am not looking for digital or optical zoom, just the ability to change the focal length of the lens. The P4 and P3 lenses could be changed, used a standard type cctv lens. I am looking to capture more detail without getting closer. I know the Inspire cameras...

    Anyone take a P4P camera apart?

    I was wondering if anyone has taken one apart, I am curious about the lens configuration. On the P3 and P4 the lens is a type that can be replaced, I was wondering about the P4P in case I could increase the focal length. A slightly longer lens would make inspections easier without having to...

    How close is too close to cell towers?

    There are other entities on towers than just the cell carriers. I am CNO for one of the largest Wireless ISP's in the country, we have 20,000 wireless routers in the field including several hundred commercial towers both owned and leased. WISP's will often have a rad center on the same towers...

    Cell Tower Inspection

    The tall objects are the antennas, each housing will often have more than one antenna in it and you will see several cables attaching to connectors, usually on the bottom. The boxes generally house the radios and surge equipment depending on the specific equipment. The tall antennas you...

    Incorrect GPS altitudes in video and stills

    I have run into a problem with the GPS altitude data taken from the photo exif files and the video cc. When measuring the height of equipment on a tower recently both altitudes were off by quite a bit. The photo exif showed the altitude as 370m msl and the video showed the altitude as 100m...

    Anyone tried a zoom lens in the P3?

    I also inspect radio towers both self supporters and guyed. I have only crashed one and that was due to interference since our towers operate on the same freq's as our drones. Harsh environment to operate in isn't it. Wish there was a slightly longer lens, it would allow us to get better...

    DJI Goggles reoslution for movies and games

    Just checked mine for you using Youtube 1080p content and it is what I would expect from a large screen hi-def tv. Pixels are not noticeable and the black levels are very good. No screen door effect. No grays, very good contrast and brightness.I would have no reticence about watching a movie...

    Most stable firmware for DJI goggles

    Have a P4P with HDMI and same issue. One time it works, next time it doesn't but don't have enough info to figure it out yet. Just wanted to let you know it is not just you. One problem I did notice is the goggle switch in Go would un-toggle itself sometimes on m,y iPad but didn't have the...

    New props on Mavic Pro

    I noticed the new Mavic has quieter props than the regular ones ( as well as other changes for sound). The new tip design is the principle cause. Anyone seen the new tip design for P4P's? God knows they could use some noise reduction. Should be a simple prop change. Thx

    Please help to find apps to capture video with P4 pro with coordinates or geo-location as a subtitle

    I think he meant video. I often take stills just so I have the info. I have had pot luck getting a decent display on video and that includes vlc. A nice osd program would be great, would love for it to work out of the GO app. Any suggestions?

    Recommendations on Live streaming

    I need to live stream an event but have not done this on Facebook or YT before. I have a P4P with an ipad mini4. I will be out in the country using the cell connection but I expect to have decent upload speeds anyway. I would obviously like the best quality I can get. Any suggestions on...
